This is a study of Enlightenment in Edinburgh like no other. Using
data and models provided by urban innovation and Smart City theory,
it pinpoints the distinctive features that made Enlightenment in
the Scottish capital possible. In a journey packed with evidence
and incident, Murray Pittock explores various civic networks - such
as the newspaper and printing businesses, the political power of
the gentry and patronage networks, as well as the pub and
coffee-house life - as drivers of cultural change. His analysis
reveals that the attributes of civic development, which lead to
innovation and dynamism, were at the heart of what made Edinburgh a
smart city of 1700.
